      Greetings,

      I am having an issue where 3 of our employees are unable to RDP to their Windows workstations from home via OpenVPN using their MAC Book Pros.  One unique issue that they have is that their network address range is the same as work.  To work around that I created a NAT address that they can use.  It was working for the longest time.  Everyone else with a Macbook Pro is fine.

      the two errors that are popping up:

      1. WARNING: After connecting to Remote Desktop VPN Connection, DNS does not appear to be working  This may mean that your VPN is not configured correctly.

      2. WARNING: Tunnelblick could not fetch IP address information before the connection to Remote Desktop VPN Connection was made.

      Thanks ahead of time for your assistance.

      Dino

        Frustrating that no one took a stab at it…  But, I'm glad no one wasted their time too.  ;D

        Turned out that it was a number of items from settings that don't work like they did before, security changes due to MAC and Windows OS updates, AD GPO policy updates, new hardware not in the correct AD OU groups, and ISP security changes that caused some homes networks to reverting to a subnet we use at work...

        Literally ended up that each employee had 3-4 of the problems but none of them had the same combination of problems...

        Anyway.

        pfSense rocks!  Keep it up.
